It is funny we all see shame in our scars.
Scurrying helplessly to try to sweep them under the rug before any one can see. Scared of what others would think.
... as if we all don't have scars. Imagine we traded scars like Pokemon instead of hiding them? What an interesting world that could be.
I'll show you mine if you show me yours, we can play in or outdoors. If you invest in my scars, you can adopt the story to share. Walk in my chaos and choose to understand the why as opposed to the outcome.
Scars are the stories of our heart. Scars are proof of the pain we have endured. Scars have a trail of lessons dressed in stories. Scars are valuable. Scars are what make us identifiable. Relatable.
Your scars teach me lessons schools could never. My scars are portals to specific time periods of my life. Scars are the doors to show you more, they are meant to be explored.
I wish it did not take me twenty eight years to realize that perfection does not exist and that scars are universal.
Trading scars and lessons learned would help us advance, it would help us to understand one another better and to grow. Judgmental eyes put away, while innocent eyes are left to examine every scar with detail.
